"lattice Boltzmann method" meaning in English

See lattice Boltzmann method in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Forms: lattice Boltzmann methods [plural]
Etymology: Named after Ludwig Boltzmann. Head templates: {{en-noun}} lattice Boltzmann method (plural lattice Boltzmann methods)
  1. Any of a class of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for fluid simulation. Instead of solving the Navier-Stokes equations directly, a fluid density on a lattice is simulated with streaming and collision (relaxation) processes.
